Chapter 49, let's have a cappuccino.
Xiao Weiqing went up several floors and found that they were all virtual pods like this; he roughly estimated that there were definitely more than 100 of them.
It wasn't until the seventh floor that things started to change; there were some classrooms, some entertainment facilities, and a bar.
"Wow, this attic is so high!" Wei Lan said, gazing into the distance.
"It's probably because the building is tall, plus the surrounding buildings are relatively short."
They hadn't reached the top yet, but their view was already higher than that of a typical 10-story building.
Xiao Weiqing toured the entire building and got a general understanding of it.
"Brother Qing, let's go to our place," Wei Lan whispered.
Xiao Weiqing nodded upon hearing this.
"Okay, let's go first."
The two went downstairs and walked towards the villa area.
It has to be said that the environment here is truly exceptional, with small bridges, flowing water, and an artificial lake where koi carp swim by from time to time.
"Brother Qing, let's choose these two buildings."
Wei Lan pointed to the two detached villas in front of her.
In fact, all villas are basically the same in size and function, only the styles are different, after all, everyone has their own preferences.
Wei Lan chose something more modern, without any ancient style or particularly technological feel.
"it is good."
"Which one do you want?" Xiao Weiqing asked.
Wei Lan smiled slightly, "Men on the left, women on the right."
"Okay, I'll take villa number 98, and you take villa number 99."
"Let's go in and take a look, and then we'll swipe the wristband to bind it."
"Uh-huh."
Enter the villa.
Xiao Weiqing casually glanced around the interior, and sure enough, the interior design was the same as the exterior – a minimalist style.
As for how good it was, he couldn't tell; it was his first time staying in a villa like this, but it felt very comfortable.
The first floor is the living room, the second floor is the training room, and the third floor is the bedroom, which together are estimated to be more than 600 square meters.
At this time.
The bracelet sent a message.
It's Jiang Peng.
"Wait for me at Bird's Nest Cafe, I'll be there in a bit."
Xiao Weiqing raised an eyebrow, somewhat puzzled, but still replied, "Okay."
The Bird's Nest Cafe is not far from here, just across the street from Ziwei Courtyard.
I saw Wei Lan as soon as I stepped out.
"Brother Qing, where are you going?"
"Jiang Xuechang is looking for me and asked me to wait for him at Bird's Nest Cafe."
"Let's go together then, my cousin also asked me to."
"I see. Let's go then."
In less than five minutes, the two arrived at Bird's Nest Cafe.
It was very quiet. The shop was quite large, over 100 square meters, and there were about 10 people sitting there scattered around.
Xiao Weiqing found a quiet spot by the window.
"Wei Lan, what would you like to drink?"
Xiao Weiqing flipped through the menu, "They also have spiritual energy drinks here, wow, the cheapest ones are only two points."
"Where? Let me see?"
"Hmm, here?"
"Dragonfish Milk Tea, 2 points per cup."
"Lingguo Chique Coffee, 5 points per cup."
"Mystic Ice Frost Rhinoceros Milk Tea, 10 points per cup."
Wei Lan clicked her tongue in amazement. "Is this made of gold?"
Xiao Weiqing complained, "Even gold isn't this expensive."
"Beautiful lady, could you introduce yourself to us?"
"Very well, distinguished guests. Our spiritual drinks are made with precious and fresh ingredients, freshly brewed by masters of the Second Realm. We never pre-make them, so as to preserve the spiritual energy of the drinks as much as possible."
"Is that even a saying?"
"Of course, our master possesses a level 3 extraordinary talent, the nectar of the immortals. The drinks he personally makes are not only delicious, but also very beneficial to cultivation."
"Let's have two cups of Dragon Fish Milk Tea."
"Okay, please wait a moment. Also, we have a promotion today: buy two Dragon Fish Milk Teas and get a free coffee. Which would you like?"
Xiao Weiqing asked, "Is it also a spiritual energy drink?"
"It's just regular coffee, but it's very delicious."
"Okay, then I'll call you later, and you can go up then."
"OK."
A few minutes later.
Two cups of milk tea were served.
One white, one pink.
A refreshing fragrance wafts towards you.
"Wei Lan, give it a try. This is the first time I've ever drunk something so expensive."
"Um."
The two took a small bite.
Xiao Weiqing nodded repeatedly, "Yes, it's definitely hot. The dragonfish wasn't pre-made."
Wei Lan said, "After taking one bite, a faint spiritual energy flowed into my body."
"But it's still too expensive. One sip costs several hundred yuan. Who can afford it?" Xiao Weiqing would not spend points to drink it a second time.
Not long after.
Jiang Peng walked in, still with his long hair tied up with a blue rope, and carrying a sword on his back.
"When did you arrive?"
"Cousin, we just sat down a short while ago."
Xiao Weiqing called over the waiter, "Hello, a cappuccino, please."
"Okay, just a moment."
Jiang Peng said, "No need, I don't drink coffee. I came to see you because I have something to discuss."
"What's up, senior?"
Jiang Peng glanced at Wei Lan, who was drinking milk tea, and asked, "Xiao Weiqing, do you like Wei Lan?"
"Cough...cough..."
Wei Lan almost coughed up her milk tea.
"Cousin, what are you talking about?"
Wei Lan's face was flushed, whether from coughing or embarrassment, she couldn't tell, and she glanced at Xiao Weiqing out of the corner of her eye.
Xiao Weiqing was somewhat surprised, but not much. He glanced at Wei Lan and said frankly:
"If Senior Jiang is referring to romantic feelings between men and women, then there isn't any yet."
These words were spoken.
Wei Lan's expression changed instantly, her face turned deathly pale, and she pursed her lips.
Xiao Weiqing continued, "Wei Lan and I have only known each other for a week. Although we have been together every day during the assessment, we know very little about each other. If I were to say that I like Wei Lan, it would be purely lust at first sight."
"But I have a good impression of Wei Lan. It's hard not to like a girl like Wei Lan, and I'm no exception."
Upon hearing this...
Wei Lan smiled and looked up at Xiao Weiqing, only to meet his gaze. She then lowered her head again.
Jiang Peng nodded appreciatively.
"I am very satisfied with your answer."
"However, I have to make this clear to you. I think you should know that Wei Lan's family background is extraordinary. If you want her to have a further relationship, or even be together with her, it will be very difficult."
Xiao Weiqing nodded; he could roughly guess something.
Jiang Peng continued:
"If you really want to be with Wei Lan, you need to demonstrate your strength and value; talent alone is useless."
"I'll transfer 2000 points to you now."
Xiao Weiqing's expression changed.
Jiang Peng said, "Don't rush to refuse. I don't want to put on some melodramatic show and let you leave Wei Lan with the points."
"I also hope that Wei Lan will be happy in the future and be with the person she likes, but the premise is that I can protect her. Consider these points as my investment in you."
Upon hearing this...
Xiao Weiqing glanced at Wei Lan.
Wei Lan blushed slightly and remained silent.
"Senior..."
"Xiao Weiqing, don't overthink it, and don't refuse it. Just accept it."
"Ahem...ahem...senior, actually..."
"I told you to accept it without worry."
"You can transfer more," Xiao Weiqing said seriously.
"..."
Jiang Peng's lips twitched, and he suddenly realized that he had said a lot of nonsense.
"Exactly, cousin, is your concern for me only worth 2000 points?"
Wei Lan raised her head and said, her face full of sadness and pitiful.
Jiang Peng glared at Wei Lan, took a deep breath, and said, "Don't be angry, don't be angry. It's normal for daughters to grow up and leave home. It's normal."
With a rapid tap of his fingers on the bracelet, he wrote, "I'll transfer an extra 1000 to you. Focus on your training."
"Senior..."
"Shut up. If you push your luck any further, you'll have to give me back my points."
Xiao Weiqing said sincerely, "No, I just wanted to thank you, senior. I will work hard."
Seeing the transfer information on the bracelet, Xiao Weiqing felt like he had been struck by lightning; happiness had come rather suddenly.
He raised an eyebrow at Wei Lan.
Wei Lan smiled and blinked.
Jiang Peng looked at the two of them irritably and said, "Go cultivate in the Spirit Tower if you have nothing to do. Don't bother us here." He waved them away.
"Well then, senior, we'll be going now."
"Um."
Xiao Weiqing stopped after taking only two steps.
"By the way, senior."
"What is it?"
"Is it still available next month?"
Xiao Weiqing looked on with anticipation.
Jiang Peng turned his head and looked at Xiao Weiqing with an incredulous expression.
Extending trembling fingers.
"Get out of here!!!"
"Okay!"
Xiao Weiqing quickly led Wei Lan away, fearing that if they didn't leave soon, Jiang Peng would draw his sword.
